For those who have forgotten the past 40 years: Tax cuts for the rich ...don’t trickle down Boosting military spending ...doesn’t bring peace Slashing regulations ...doesn’t create jobs Folks, we’ve seen this all before.

U.S. childcare costs are astronomical. More families are turning to grandparents. - NPR This is such a complicated issue; I can’t possibly discuss in a 300 character venue. One issue i’ll choose: what of those without fit extended family? Are they deliberately priced out of having children?

Republican candidate in Florida warns Trump his immigration agenda has “gone too far” - Reuters So what is this? Some milquetoast effort to distance herself from MAGAT policy now that the fallout might impact her without offending cash cow trump? I hope none of her constituents are fooled.

Judge orders Trump to give 30-day notice before any demolition of Kennedy Center - USA TODAY But will the demolition stop or will it continue in defiance of the court order? If the latter, will there be any consequence whatsoever? We’ve seen masses of court orders openly defied under the MAGATs.

In a dark, divisive NC speech, Trump tries to scare people to the polls | Opinion - Raleigh News Won’t the people of NC be offended about a smear campaign that denigrates their beautiful state and calls it a “hellscape”? Trump lies aren’t helpful to the people of NC. They hurt them.

The Supreme Court has really let our Country down!” Trump said (...) “It is a Court that will go down as having rendered some of the most destructive, hurtful, and damaging decisions in our Country’s history.” A rare point upon which trump and I agree.

Okay, am I completely hopeless end user? I see the sign that says it’s message one of eight but I don’t see how to view all. I click around to no avail.

A dire warning, billionaire criminal Musk has set up a scheme in the form of a website votesafe.org in order to steal voter information. Never click on the link and please share this everywhere so others won’t fall prey to it like so many others.

Opinion | Why Send a Child to Public School? - The Wall Street Journal I’m terrified for isolated children. I admit that some enjoy excellent home schooling. What about the majority that are blocked from everything past the beliefs of their guardians? What about no one having eyes on them?

Why does Apple News only feed me fluff opinion pieces? I’m tired of paying for a “news feed”that offers nothing of substance. It’s heartbreaking that we no longer have free press in the US. I miss Sundays wherein I spent hours poring over the Times. Now it’s all oligarch owned propaganda.

Seen in Kyiv today at a supermarket whose warehouses have been hit more than once in russian attacks. It says: russians probably hoped this was the end for us and that we’d be left in sorrow. Instead, we’re angry, full of new ideas, and grateful for our people.

I Should Be Allowed to Cold-Call My Friends - New York Magazine I completely agree with this article. I refuse to have relationships via text. What’s wrong with talking once in a while?

How the MAGA Movement Is Hijacking Style - Vanity Fair In my opinion, it is so flipping stupid that THIS is being made into an issue. Why not corruption, defiance of court orders, criminal activity, you all know that the list is long. Why allow ourselves to be sidetracked by this nonsense?

Meta will pay up to $16.7 billion in a landmark settlement — and that’s not all - WIRED That META settled for $17.5 billion means that it’s too small. We’ve seen it time and again; pay a fine to continue to impose harm so long as it is profitable. Big tobacco, fossil, and Pharma? Sound familiar?
